Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Organization and Basis of Presentation | Organization and Basis of Presentation Organization Jefferies Group LLC is the largest independent U.S.-headquartered global full service, integrated investment banking and securities firm. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements represent the accounts of Jefferies Group LLC and all our subsidiaries (together “we” or “us”). The subsidiaries of Jefferies Group LLC include Jefferies LLC, Jefferies International Limited, Jefferies GmbH, Jefferies Hong Kong Limited, Jefferies Financial Services, Inc., Jefferies Funding LLC, Jefferies Leveraged Credit Products, LLC and all other entities in which we have a controlling financial interest or are the primary beneficiary. Jefferies Group LLC is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of publicly traded Jefferies Financial Group Inc. (“Jefferies”). Jefferies does not guarantee any of our outstanding debt securities. Jefferies Group LLC is a Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reporting company, filing annual, quarterly and periodic financial reports. Richard Handler, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, is the Chief Executive Officer of Jefferies, as well as a Director of Jefferies. Brian P. Friedman, our Chairman of the Executive Committee, is Jefferies’ President and a Director of Jefferies. We operate in two reportable business segments: (1) Investment Banking and Capital Markets and (2) Asset Management. For further information on our reportable business segments, refer to Note 17, Segment Reporting. Transfers from Jefferies On December 1, 2021, Jefferies transferred certain loans and certain investments in securities and limited partnerships to us. In addition, Jefferies transferred its investment in Foursight, a subsidiary of Jefferies, to us. These transfers were accomplished as a capital contribution from Jefferies, and since we are under common control, these loans and investments and the assets and liabilities of Foursight were recorded at their carrying amounts. As a result of these transfers, our total assets increased by $1.27 billion, total liabilities increased by $800.4 million and total equity increased by $476.5 million in our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. Included in the total assets increase is cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash transferred of approximately $60.3 million included as financing activities in our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended February 28, 2022. The transferred securities and limited partnership interests are subsequently accounted for in accordance with our existing accounting policies for Financial instruments owned and Loans to and investments in related parties. Certain transferred loans have been classified within Other assets in our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition and are accounted for at amortized cost as the transfer did not qualify as an event upon which the fair value option for these loans could be elected. Principal transactions revenues related to the change in fair value of the investments classified in Financial instruments owned, at fair value, Other revenue related to our share of the investees’ earnings for investments classified in Loans to and investments in related parties and interest income on transferred loans are included within our results of operations as of the period beginning December 1, 2021 in our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition and, accordingly, for the three months ended February 28, 2022 in our Consolidated Statement of Earnings. From December 1, 2021, Foursight is consolidated by us. Foursight is engaged primarily in automobile lending. The net assets of Foursight in our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition consist primarily of automobile loans classified within Receivables—Fees, interest and other and are accounted for at amortized cost, with a provision for current expected credit losses, and Other secured financings. The results of operations of Foursight, which consist primarily of Interest income, Other revenues related to servicing activities and operating expenses are included within our results of operations as of the period beginning December 1, 2021 and, accordingly, for the three months ended February 28, 2022 in our Consolidated Statement of Earnings. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2021. Certain footnote disclosures included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2021 have been condensed or omitted from the consolidated financial statements as they are not required for interim reporting under U.S. GAAP. The Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim period. The results presented in our Consolidated Financial Statements for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. We have made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The most important of these estimates and assumptions relate to fair value measurements, compensation and benefits, goodwill and intangible assets, the ability to realize certain deferred tax assets and the recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions. Although these and other estimates and assumptions are based on the best available information, actual results could be materially different from these estimates. Consolidation Our policy is to consolidate all entities that we control by ownership of a majority of the outstanding voting stock. In addition, we consolidate entities that meet the definition of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which we are the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the party who has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and who has an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. For consolidated entities that are less than wholly-owned, the third-party’s holding of equity interest is presented as Noncontrolling interests in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity. The portion of net earnings attributable to the noncontrolling interests is presented as Net earnings (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. In situations in which we have significant influence, but not control, of an entity that does not qualify as a VIE, we apply either the equity method of accounting or fair value accounting pursuant to the fair value option election under U.S. GAAP, with our portion of net earnings or gains and losses recorded in Other revenues or Principal transactions revenues, respectively. We also have formed nonconsolidated investment vehicles with third-party investors that are typically organized as partnerships or limited liability companies and are carried at fair value. We act as general partner or managing member for these investment vehicles and have generally provided the third-party investors with termination or “kick-out” rights. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies For a detailed discussion about the Company’s significant accounting policies, see Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2021. During the three months ended February 28, 2022, there were no significant changes made to the Company’s significant accounting policies except as follows. Credit Losses on Certain Financial Assets Measured at Amortized Cost On December 1, 2021, Jefferies transferred its investment in Foursight, a subsidiary of Jefferies, to us. Foursight is engaged primarily in automobile lending. At February 28, 2022, we had automobile loans, including accrued interest and related fees, of $836.1 million, which are classified as either held for investment or held for sale depending on the intent to hold the underlying collateral and which are collateralized by a security interest in the vehicles’ titles. Automobile loans held for investment consisted of approximately 18.1% with credit scores 680 and above, 48.7% with scores between 620 and 679 and 33.2% with scores below 620 at February 28, 2022. These loans are included in Receivables—fees, interest and other in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and are not carried at fair value. The automobile loans have a fair value of $868.7 million at February 28, 2022, which would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Provision for credit losses are charged to income in amounts sufficient to maintain an allowance for credit losses inherent in automobile loans held for investment. The allowance for credit losses is established systematically by management based on the determination of the amount of credit losses inherent in the automobile loans held for investment as of the reporting date. All automobile loans held for investment are collectively evaluated for impairment. Management's estimate of expected credit losses is based on an evaluation of relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the future collectability of the reported amounts. We use static pool modeling techniques to determine the allowance for loan losses expected over the remaining life of the loans, which is supplemented by management judgment. Expected losses are estimated for groups of accounts aggregated by monthly vintage. Generally, the expected losses are projected based on historical loss experience over the last eight years, more heavily weighted toward recent performance when determining the allowance to result in an estimate that is more reflective of the current internal and external environments. Our estimate of expected credit losses includes a reasonable and supportable forecast period of two years and then reverts to an estimate based on historical losses. We review charge-off experience factors, contractual delinquency, historical collection rates, the value of underlying collateral and other information to make the necessary judgments as to credit losses expected in the portfolio as of the reporting date. While management utilizes the best information available to make its evaluations, changes in macroeconomic conditions, interest rate environments, or both, may significantly impact the assumptions and inputs used in determining the allowance for credit losses. Our charge-off policy is based on a loan by loan review of delinquent loans. A rollforward of the allowance for credit losses related to our automobile loans for the three months ended February 28, 2022 is as follows (in thousands): Beginning balance (1) $ 67,236 Provision for doubtful accounts 7,545 Charge-offs, net of recoveries (4,672) Ending balance $ 70,109 (1) The beginning balance is at December 1, 2021 and is related to Jefferies’ transfer of its investment in Foursight to us. |

The following is a description of the valuation basis, including valuation techniques and inputs, used in measuring our financial assets and liabilities that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis: Corporate Equity Securities • Exchange-Traded Equity Securities: Exchange-traded equity securities are measured based on quoted closing exchange prices, which are generally obtained from external pricing services, and are categorized within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. To the extent these securities are actively traded, valuation adjustments are not applied. • Non-Exchange-Traded Equity Securities : Non-exchange-traded equity securities are measured primarily using broker quotations, pricing data from external pricing services and prices observed from recently executed market transactions and are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Where such information is not available, non-exchange-traded equity securities are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and measured using valuation techniques involving quoted prices of or market data for comparable companies, similar company ratios and multiples ( e.g. , price/Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), price/book value), discounted cash flow analyses and transaction prices observed from subsequent financing or capital issuance by the company. When using pricing data of comparable companies, judgment must be applied to adjust the pricing data to account for differences between the measured security and the comparable security ( e.g. , issuer market capitalization, yield, dividend rate, geographical concentration). • Equity Warrants: Non-exchange-traded equity warrants are measured primarily from observed prices on recently executed market transactions and broker quotations and are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Where such information is not available, non-exchange-traded equity warrants are generally categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and can be measured using third-party valuation services or the Black-Scholes model with key inputs impacting the valuation including the underlying security price, implied volatility, dividend yield, interest rate curve, strike price and maturity date. Corporate Debt Securities • Investment Grade Corporate Bonds: Investment grade corporate bonds are measured primarily using pricing data from external pricing services and broker quotations, where available, prices observed from recently executed market transactions and bond spreads or credit default swap spreads of the issuer adjusted for basis differences between the swap curve and the bond curve. Investment grade corporate bonds measured using these valuation methods are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. If broker quotes, pricing data or spread data is not available, alternative valuation techniques are used including cash flow models incorporating interest rate curves, single name or index credit default swap curves for comparable issuers and recovery rate assumptions. Investment grade corporate bonds measured using alternative valuation techniques are categorized within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and are a limited portion of our investment grade corporate bonds. • High Yield Corporate and Convertible Bonds: A significant portion of our high yield corporate and convertible bonds are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and are measured primarily using broker quotations and pricing data from external pricing services, where available, and prices observed from recently executed market transactions of institutional size. Where pricing data is less observable, valuations are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and are based on pending transactions involving the issuer or comparable issuers, prices implied from an issuer’s subsequent financing or recapitalization, models incorporating financial ratios and projected cash flows of the issuer and market prices for comparable issuers. Collateralized Debt Obligations and Collateralized Loan Obligations Collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”) and collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) are measured based on prices observed from recently executed market transactions of the same or similar security or based on valuations received from third-party brokers or data providers and are categorized within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the observability and significance of the pricing inputs. Valuation that is based on recently executed market transactions of similar securities incorporates additional review and analysis of pricing inputs and comparability criteria, including, but not limited to, collateral type, tranche type, rating, origination year, prepayment rates, default rates and loss severity. U.S. Government and Federal Agency Securities • U.S. Treasury Securities: U.S. Treasury securities are measured based on quoted market prices obtained from external pricing services and categorized within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. • U.S. Agency Debt Securities: Callable and non-callable U.S. agency debt securities are measured primarily based on quoted market prices obtained from external pricing services and are generally categorized within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Municipal Securities Municipal securities are measured based on quoted prices obtained from external pricing services, where available, or recently executed independent transactions of comparable size and are generally categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Sovereign Obligations Sovereign government obligations are measured based on quoted market prices obtained from external pricing services, where available, or recently executed independent transactions of comparable size. Sovereign government obligations, with consideration given to the country of issuance, are generally categorized within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. High price volatility was observed for certain sovereign bonds given the recent geopolitical tensions in Eastern Europe, which resulted in Level 3 classification for certain obligations given the wide price dispersion in available external pricing data. Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities • Agency Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities (“RMBS”): Agency RMBS include mortgage pass-through securities (fixed and adjustable rate), collateralized mortgage obligations and principal-only and interest-only (including inverse interest-only) securities. Agency RMBS are generally measured using recent transactions, pricing data from external pricing services or expected future cash flow techniques that incorporate prepayment models and other prepayment assumptions to amortize the underlying mortgage loan collateral and are categorized within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. We use prices observed from recently executed transactions to develop market-clearing spread and yield assumptions. Valuation inputs with regard to the underlying collateral incorporate factors such as weighted average coupon, loan-to-value, credit scores, geographic location, maximum and average loan size, originator, servicer and weighted average loan age. • Non-Agency RMBS: The fair value of non-agency RMBS is determined primarily using pricing data from external pricing services, where available, and discounted cash flow methodologies and securities are categorized within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy based on the observability and significance of the pricing inputs used. Performance attributes of the underlying mortgage loans are evaluated to estimate pricing inputs, such as prepayment rates, default rates and the severity of credit losses. Attributes of the underlying mortgage loans that affect the pricing inputs include, but are not limited to, weighted average coupon; average and maximum loan size; loan-to-value; credit scores; documentation type; geographic location; weighted average loan age; originator; servicer; historical prepayment, default and loss severity experience of the mortgage loan pool; and delinquency rate. Yield curves used in the discounted cash flow models are based on observed market prices for comparable securities and published interest rate data to estimate market yields. In addition, broker quotes, where available, are also referenced to compare prices primarily on interest-only securities. Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities • Agency Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (“CMBS”): Government National Mortgage Association (“Ginnie Mae”) project loan bonds are measured based on inputs corroborated from and benchmarked to observed prices of recent securitization transactions of similar securities with adjustments incorporating an evaluation of various factors, including prepayment speeds, default rates and cash flow structures. Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) Delegated Underwriting and Servicing (“DUS”) mortgage-backed securities are generally measured by using prices observed from recently executed market transactions to estimate market-clearing spread levels for purposes of estimating fair value. Ginnie Mae project loan bonds and Fannie Mae DUS mortgage-backed securities are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. • Non-Agency CMBS: Non-agency CMBS are measured using pricing data obtained from external pricing services, prices observed from recently executed market transactions or based on expected cash flow models that incorporate underlying loan collateral characteristics and performance. Non-Agency CMBS are categorized within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the observability of the underlying inputs. Other Asset-Backed Securities Other asset-backed securities (“ABS”) include, but are not limited to, securities backed by automobile loans, credit card receivables, student loans and other consumer loans and are categorized within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Valuations are primarily determined using pricing data obtained from external pricing services, broker quotes and prices observed from recently executed market transactions. In addition, recent transaction data from comparable deals is deployed to develop market clearing yields and cumulative loss assumptions. The cumulative loss assumptions are based on the analysis of the underlying collateral and comparisons to earlier deals from the same issuer to gauge the relative performance of the deal. Loans and Other Receivables • Corporate Loans: Corporate loans categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are measured based on market consensus pricing service quotations. Where available, market price quotations from external pricing services are reviewed to ensure they are supported by transaction data. Corporate loans categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are measured based on price quotations that are considered to be less transparent, for example, derived using market prices for debt securities of the same creditor and estimates of future cash flows incorporating assumptions regarding creditor default and recovery rates and consideration of the issuer’s capital structure. • Participation Certificates in Agency Residential Loans: Valuations of participation certificates in agency residential loans are based on observed market prices of recently executed purchases and sales of similar loans and data provider pricing. The loan participation certificates are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy given the observability and volume of recently executed transactions and availability of data provider pricing. • Project Loans and Participation Certificates in Ginnie Mae Project and Construction Loans: Valuations of participation certificates in Ginnie Mae project and construction loans are based on inputs corroborated from and benchmarked to observed prices of recent securitizations with similar underlying loan collateral to derive an implied spread. Securitization prices are adjusted to estimate the fair value of the loans to account for the arbitrage that is realized at the time of securitization. The measurements are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy given the observability and volume of recently executed transactions. • Consumer Loans and Funding Facilities: Consumer and small business whole loans and related funding facilities are valued based on observed market transactions and incorporating valuation inputs including, but not limited to, delinquency and default rates, prepayment rates, borrower characteristics, loan risk grades and loan age. These assets are categorized within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. • Escrow and Claim Receivables: Escrow and claim receivables are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy where fair value is based on recent observations in the same receivable. Escrow and claim receivables are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy where fair value is estimated based on reference to market prices and implied yields of debt securities of the same or similar issuers. Derivatives • Listed Derivative Contracts: Listed derivative contracts that are actively traded are measured based on quoted exchange prices, broker quotes or vanilla option valuation models, such as Black-Scholes, using observable valuation inputs from the principal market or consensus pricing services. Exchange quotes and/or valuation inputs are generally obtained from external vendors and pricing services. Broker quotes are validated directly through observable and tradeable quotes. Listed derivative contracts that use exchange close prices are generally categorized within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. All other listed derivative contracts are generally categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. • Over-the-Counter (“OTC”) Derivative Contracts: OTC derivative contracts are generally valued using models, whose inputs reflect assumptions that we believe market participants would use in valuing the derivative in a current transaction. Where available, valuation inputs are calibrated from observable market data. For many OTC derivative contracts, the valuation models do not involve material subjectivity as the methodologies do not entail significant judgment and the inputs to valuation models do not involve a high degree of subjectivity as the valuation model inputs are readily observable or can be derived from actively quoted markets. OTC derivative contracts are primarily categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy given the observability and significance of the inputs to the valuation models. Where significant inputs to the valuation are unobservable, derivative instruments are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. OTC options include OTC equity, foreign exchange, interest rate and commodity options measured using various valuation models, such as Black-Scholes, with key inputs including the underlying security price, foreign exchange spot rate, commodity price, implied volatility, dividend yield, interest rate curve, strike price and maturity date. Discounted cash flow models are utilized to measure certain OTC derivative contracts including the valuations of our interest rate swaps, which incorporate observable inputs related to interest rate curves, valuations of our foreign exchange forwards and swaps, which incorporate observable inputs related to foreign currency spot rates and forward curves and valuations of our commodity swaps and forwards, which incorporate observable inputs related to commodity spot prices and forward curves. Credit default swaps include both index and single-name credit default swaps. Where available, external data is used in measuring index credit default swaps and single-name credit default swaps. For commodity and equity total return swaps, market prices are generally observable for the underlying asset and used as the basis for measuring the fair value of the derivative contracts. Total return swaps executed on other underlyings are measured based on valuations received from external pricing services. Investments at Fair Value Investments at fair value includes investments in hedge funds and private equity funds, which are measured at the NAV of the funds, provided by the fund managers and are excluded from the fair value hierarchy. Investments at fair value also include direct equity investments in private companies, which are measured at fair value using valuation techniques internally or by third-party valuation services involving performance data, company ratios and multiples ( e.g. , price/EBITDA, price/book value) for comparable companies, discounted cash flow analyses and transaction prices observed for subsequent financing or capital issuance by the company. Direct equity investments in private companies are categorized within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

At February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, approximately 73% and 74%, respectively, are redeemable quarterly with 90 days prior written notice on December 31, 2021. At both February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, approximately 21% of the fair value of investments in this category cannot be redeemed because these investments include restrictions that do not allow for redemption before November 30, 2023. The remaining investments are redeemable quarterly with 60 days prior written notice. (3) The investments in this category include investments in equity funds that invest in the equity of various U.S. and foreign private companies in a broad range of industries. These investments cannot be redeemed; instead, distributions are received through the liquidation of the underlying assets of the funds which are primarily expected to be liquidated in approximately one (4) This category includes investments in a hedge fund that invests, long and short, primarily in commodities. Investments in this category are redeemable quarterly with 60 days prior written notice. (5) This category includes investments in hedge funds that invest, long and short, primarily in multi-asset securities in domestic and international markets in both the public and private sectors.

(6) This category includes investments in a fund that invests in short-term trade receivables and payables that are expected to generally be outstanding between 90 to 120 days and short-term credit instruments. This category also includes investments in a fund that invests in distressed and special situations long and short credit strategies across sectors and asset types. Investments in this category are redeemable quarterly with 90 days prior written notice. Securities Received as Collateral / Obligations to Return Securities Received as Collateral In connection with securities-for-securities transactions in which we are the lender of securities and are permitted to sell or repledge the securities received as collateral, we report the fair value of the collateral received and the related obligation to return the collateral. Valuation is based on the price of the underlying security and is categorized within the corresponding leveling guidance above. These financial instruments are typically categorized within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Other Secured Financings Other secured financings that are accounted for at fair value are classified within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Fair value is based on estimates of future cash flows incorporating assumptions regarding recovery rates. Long-term Debt Long-term debt includes variable rate, fixed-to-floating rate, equity-linked notes, constant maturity swap, digital and Bermudan structured notes. These are valued using various valuation models that incorporate our own credit spread, market price quotations from external pricing sources referencing the appropriate interest rate curves, volatilities and other inputs as well as prices for transactions in a given note during the period. Long-term debt notes are generally categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy where market trades have been observed during the period or model pricing is available, otherwise the notes are categorized within Level 3.

Analysis of Level 3 Assets and Liabilities for the Three Months Ended February 28, 2022 During the three months ended February 28, 2022, transfers of assets of $64.8 million from Level 2 to Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are primarily attributed to: • CDOs and CLOs of $18.8 million, Loans and other receivables of $16.1 million, Other ABS of $12.9 million, Corporate debt securities of $9.4 million and Corporate equity securities of $7.4 million due to reduced pricing transparency. During the three months ended February 28, 2022, transfers of assets of $40.5 million from Level 3 to Level 2 are primarily attributed to: • Other ABS of $28.9 million, CDOs and CLOs of $9.0 million and Loans and other receivables of $2.4 million due to greater pricing transparency supporting classification into Level 2. During the three months ended February 28, 2022, transfers of liabilities of $72.6 million from Level 2 to Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are primarily attributed to: • Net derivatives of $27.9 million, structured notes within Long-term debt of $25.8 million, Corporate debt securities of $12.4 million and Loans of $6.2 million due to reduced pricing and market transparency. During the three months ended February 28, 2022, transfers of liabilities of $72.1 million from Level 3 to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are primarily attributed to: • Structured notes within Long-term debt of $44.0 million and Net derivatives of $28.1 million due to greater market and pricing transparency. Net gains on Level 3 assets were $30.0 million and net gains on Level 3 liabilities were $161.4 million for the three months ended February 28, 2022. Net gains on Level 3 assets were primarily due to increased market values across Investments at fair value and Corporate equity securities, partially offset by decreases in Loans and other receivables. Net gains on Level 3 liabilities were primarily due to decreased valuations of structured notes within Long-term debt, certain derivatives and Corporate debt securities.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Financial Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments Derivative Financial Instruments Our derivative activities are recorded at fair value in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition in Financial instruments owned and Financial instruments sold, not yet purchased, net of cash paid or received under credit support agreements and on a net counterparty basis when a legally enforceable right to offset exists under a master netting agreement. We enter into derivative transactions to satisfy the needs of our clients and to manage our own exposure to market and credit risks resulting from our trading activities. In addition, we apply hedge accounting to: (1) interest rate swaps that have been designated as fair value hedges of the changes in fair value due to the benchmark interest rate for certain fixed rate senior long-term debt, and (2) forward foreign exchange contracts designated as hedges to offset the change in the value of certain net investments in foreign operations. See Note 3, Fair Value Disclosures, and Note 15, Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees, for additional disclosures about derivative financial instruments. Derivatives are subject to various risks similar to other financial instruments, including market, credit and operational risk. The risks of derivatives should not be viewed in isolation, but rather should be considered on an aggregate basis along with our other trading-related activities. We manage the risks associated with derivatives on an aggregate basis along with the risks associated with proprietary trading as part of our firm wide risk management policies. In connection with our derivative activities, we may enter into International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. master netting agreements or similar agreements with counterparties. See Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2021 for additional information regarding the offsetting of derivative contracts. The following tables present the fair value and related number of derivative contracts at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021 categorized by type of derivative contract and the platform on which these derivatives are transacted. The fair value of assets/liabilities represents our receivable/payable for derivative financial instruments, gross of counterparty netting and cash collateral received and pledged. The following tables also provide information regarding 1) the extent to which, under enforceable master netting arrangements, such balances are presented net in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as appropriate under U.S. GAAP and 2) the extent to which other rights of setoff associated with these arrangements exist and could have an effect on our financial position (in thousands, except contract amounts).

Collateralized Transactions [Abstract] | |
Collateralized Transactions | Collateralized Transactions Our repurchase agreements and securities borrowing and lending arrangements are generally recorded at cost in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, which is a reasonable approximation of their fair values due to their short-term nature. We enter into secured borrowing and lending arrangements to obtain collateral necessary to effect settlement, finance inventory positions, meet customer needs or re-lend as part of our dealer operations. We monitor the fair value of the securities loaned and borrowed on a daily basis as compared with the related payable or receivable, and request additional collateral or return excess collateral, as appropriate. We pledge financial instruments as collateral under repurchase agreements, securities lending agreements and other secured arrangements, including clearing arrangements. Our agreements with counterparties generally contain contractual provisions allowing the counterparty the right to sell or repledge the collateral. Pledged securities owned that can be sold or repledged by the counterparty are included in Financial instruments owned, at fair value, and noted parenthetically as Securities pledged in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. In instances where we receive securities as collateral in connection with securities-for-securities transactions in which we are the lender of securities and are permitted to sell or repledge the securities received as collateral, we report the fair value of the collateral received and the related obligation to return the collateral in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

We also receive securities as collateral in connection with securities-for-securities transactions in which we are the lender of securities. In many instances, we are permitted by contract to rehypothecate the securities received as collateral. These securities may be used to secure repurchase agreements, enter into securities lending transactions, satisfy margin requirements on derivative transactions or cover short positions. At February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, the approximate fair value of securities received as collateral by us that may be sold or repledged was $34.59 billion and $31.97 billion, respectively. At February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, a substantial portion of the securities received by us had been sold or repledged. Offsetting of Securities Financing Agreements To manage our exposure to credit risk associated with securities financing transactions, we may enter into master netting agreements and collateral arrangements with counterparties. Generally, transactions are executed under standard industry agreements, including, but not limited to, master securities lending agreements (securities lending transactions) and master repurchase agreements (repurchase transactions). See Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2021 for additional information regarding the offsetting of securities financing agreements. The following tables provide information regarding repurchase agreements, securities borrowing and lending arrangements and securities received as collateral, at fair value, and obligation to return securities received as collateral, at fair value, that are recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and 1) the extent to which, under enforceable master netting arrangements, such balances are presented net in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition as appropriate under U.S. GAAP and 2) the extent to which other rights of setoff associated with these arrangements exist and could have an effect on our financial position (in thousands).

Cash and Securities Segregated and on Deposit for Regulatory Purposes or Deposited with Clearing and Depository Organizations Cash and securities segregated in accordance with regulatory regulations and deposited with clearing and depository organizations totaled $838.1 million and $1.02 billion at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, respectively. Segregated cash and securities consist of deposits in accordance with Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which subjects Jefferies LLC as a broker-dealer carrying customer accounts to requirements related to maintaining cash or qualified securities in segregated special reserve bank accounts for the exclusive benefit of its customers. Other Assets Restricted cash, which is comprised of cash reserve balances required by securitization agreements and cash collections associated with automobile loans pledged to warehouse credit facilities, is included in Other assets in our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition at February 28, 2022. These restricted cash balances are held by trustees and are distributed monthly by the trustees per the various securitization and warehouse credit facility agreements. Restricted cash may also include amounts related to pre-funding arrangements put in place for securitizations, which are funds that remain in an escrow account managed by a trustee until we pledge additional automobile loans to meet the collateral requirements of the related notes, at which time the funds become available for our use. |

Transfers and Servicing [Abstract] | |
Securitization Activities | Securitization Activities We engage in securitization activities related to corporate loans, mortgage loans, consumer loans and mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities. In our securitization transactions, we transfer these assets to special purpose entities (“SPEs”) and act as the placement or structuring agent for the beneficial interests sold to investors by the SPE. A significant portion of our securitization transactions are the securitization of assets issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies. These SPEs generally meet the criteria of VIEs; however, we generally do not consolidate the SPEs as we are not considered the primary beneficiary for these SPEs. See Note 7, Variable Interest Entities, for further discussion on VIEs and our determination of the primary beneficiary. We account for our securitization transactions as sales, provided we have relinquished control over the transferred assets. Transferred assets are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reflected in Principal transactions revenues in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings prior to the identification and isolation for securitization. Subsequently, revenues recognized upon securitization are reflected as net underwriting revenues. We generally receive cash proceeds in connection with the transfer of assets to an SPE. We may, however, have continuing involvement with the transferred assets, which is limited to retaining one or more tranches of the securitization (primarily senior and subordinated debt securities in the form of mortgage-backed and other-asset backed securities or CLOs). These securities are included in Financial instruments owned, at fair value in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and are generally initially categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. For further information on fair value measurements and the fair value hierarchy, refer to Note 3, Fair Value Disclosures, herein, and Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2021. The following table presents activity related to our securitizations that were accounted for as sales in which we had continuing involvement (in millions): Three Months Ended 2022 2021 Transferred assets $ 1,080.6 $ 3,583.5 Proceeds on new securitizations 1,080.6 3,583.1 Cash flows received on retained interests 8.9 6.3 We have no explicit or implicit arrangements to provide additional financial support to these SPEs, have no liabilities related to these SPEs and do not have any outstanding derivative contracts executed in connection with these securitization activities at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021.

Assets retained in connection with a securitization transaction represent the fair value of the securities of one or more tranches issued by an SPE, including senior and subordinated tranches. Our risk of loss is limited to this fair value amount which is included in total Financial instruments owned in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. |
Variable Interest Entities

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities VIEs are entities in which equity investors lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. VIEs are consolidated by the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the party who has both (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (2) an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. Our variable interests in VIEs include debt and equity interests, commitments, guarantees and certain fees. Our involvement with VIEs arises primarily from: • Purchases of securities in connection with our trading and secondary market making activities; • Retained interests held as a result of securitization activities; • Acting as placement agent and/or underwriter in connection with client-sponsored securitizations; • Financing of agency and non-agency mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities; • Acting as servicer for a fee to automobile loan financing vehicles; • Warehouse funding arrangements for client-sponsored consumer and mortgage loan vehicles and CLOs through participation agreements, forward sale agreements, reverse repurchase agreements, and revolving loan and note commitments; and • Loans to, investments in and fees from various investment vehicles. We determine whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE upon our initial involvement with the VIE and we reassess whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE on an ongoing basis. Our determination of whether we are the primary beneficiary of a VIE is based upon the facts and circumstances for each VIE and requires judgment. Our considerations in determining the VIE’s most significant activities and whether we have power to direct those activities include, but are not limited to, the VIE’s purpose and design and the risks passed through to investors, the voting interests of the VIE, management, service and/or other agreements of the VIE, involvement in the VIE’s initial design and the existence of explicit or implicit financial guarantees. In situations where we have determined that the power over the VIE’s significant activities is shared, we assess whether we are the party with the power over the most significant activities. If we are the party with the power over the most significant activities, we meet the “power” criteria of the primary beneficiary. If we do not have the power over the most significant activities or we determine that decisions require consent of each sharing party, we do not meet the “power” criteria of the primary beneficiary. We assess our variable interests in a VIE both individually and in aggregate to determine whether we have an obligation to absorb losses of or a right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The determination of whether our variable interest is significant to the VIE requires judgment. In determining the significance of our variable interest, we consider the terms, characteristics and size of the variable interests, the design and characteristics of the VIE, our involvement in the VIE and our market-making activities related to the variable interests. Consolidated VIEs The following table presents information about our consolidated VIEs at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021 (in millions). The assets and liabilities in the tables below are presented prior to consolidation and thus a portion of these assets and liabilities are eliminated in consolidation. February 28, 2022 November 30, 2021 Secured Funding Vehicles Other Secured Funding Vehicles Other Cash $ 11.6 $ — $ 3.8 $ — Financial instruments owned 239.5 64.7 173.1 146.4 Securities purchased under agreements to resell (1) 2,554.8 18.0 3,697.1 — Receivables from brokers (2) — 54.0 — 40.6 Other receivables 742.9 — 0.6 — Other assets (3) 133.7 — — — Total assets $ 3,682.5 $ 136.7 $ 3,874.6 $ 187.0 Financial instruments sold, not yet purchased $ — $ 18.0 $ — $ 109.1 Other secured financings (4) 3,609.5 — 3,828.6 — Repurchase agreements — 47.1 — — Payables to broker dealers 50.1 — 44.2 — Other liabilities (5) 2.8 75.3 1.8 75.3 Total liabilities $ 3,662.4 $ 140.4 $ 3,874.6 $ 184.4 (1) Securities purchased under agreements to resell primarily represent amounts due under collateralized transactions on related consolidated entities, which are eliminated in consolidation. At February 28, 2022, approximately $18.0 million was not eliminated in consolidation. (2) Approximately $1.4 million and $1.2 million of receivables from brokers at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, respectively, are with related consolidated entities, which are eliminated in consolidation. (3) Approximately $45.7 million of the other assets at February 28, 2022 represent intercompany receivables with related consolidated entities, which are eliminated in consolidation. (4) Approximately $58.6 million and $36.7 million of the other secured financings at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, respectively, are with related consolidated entities and are eliminated in consolidation. (5) Approximately $75.2 million and $75.3 million of the other liabilities amounts at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, respectively, are with related consolidated entities, which are eliminated in consolidation. Secured Funding Vehicles . We are the primary beneficiary of asset-backed financing vehicles to which we sell agency and non-agency residential and commercial mortgage loans, and asset-backed securities pursuant to the terms of a master repurchase agreement. Our variable interests in these vehicles consist of our collateral margin maintenance obligations under the master repurchase agreement, which we manage, and retained interests in securities issued. The assets of these VIEs consist of reverse repurchase agreements, which are available for the benefit of the vehicle’s debt holders. At February 28, 2022, we are the primary beneficiary of automobile loan financing vehicles to which we transfer automobile loans, act as servicer of the automobile loans for a fee and retain equity interests in the vehicles. The assets of these VIEs consist primarily of automobile loans, which are accounted for as loans held for investment at amortized cost and included within Receivables—fees, interest and other on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. The liabilities of these VIEs consist of notes issued by the VIEs, which are accounted for at amortized cost and included within Other secured financings on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition and do not have recourse to our general credit. The automobile loans are pledged as collateral for the related notes and available only for the benefit of the note holders. Other. We are the primary beneficiary of certain investment vehicles set up for the benefit of our employees. We manage and invest alongside our employees in these vehicles. The assets of these VIEs consist of private equity securities, and are available for the benefit of the entities’ equity holders. Our variable interests in these vehicles consist of equity securities. The creditors of these VIEs do not have recourse to our general credit and each such VIE’s assets are not available to satisfy any other debt. Nonconsolidated VIEs The following tables present information about our variable interests in nonconsolidated VIEs (in millions): February 28, 2022 Carrying Amount Maximum Exposure to Loss VIE Assets Assets Liabilities CLOs $ 851.1 $ 2.9 $ 3,500.2 $ 8,461.2 Asset-backed vehicles 485.8 — 510.6 5,022.5 Related party private equity vehicles 26.2 — 36.9 74.7 Other investment vehicles 1,239.8 — 1,333.5 14,685.4 Total $ 2,602.9 $ 2.9 $ 5,381.2 $ 28,243.8 November 30, 2021 Carrying Amount Maximum Exposure to Loss VIE Assets Assets Liabilities CLOs $ 582.2 $ 2.0 $ 2,557.1 $ 10,277.5 Asset-backed vehicles 281.9 — 359.3 3,474.6 Related party private equity vehicles 27.1 — 37.8 78.9 Other investment vehicles 907.6 — 908.5 12,536.8 Total $ 1,798.8 $ 2.0 $ 3,862.7 $ 26,367.8 Our maximum exposure to loss often differs from the carrying value of the variable interests. The maximum exposure to loss is dependent on the nature of our variable interests in the VIEs and is limited to the notional amounts of certain loan and equity commitments and guarantees. Our maximum exposure to loss does not include the offsetting benefit of any financial instruments that may be utilized to hedge the risks associated with our variable interests and is not reduced by the amount of collateral held as part of a transaction with a VIE. Collateralized Loan Obligations. Assets collateralizing the CLOs include bank loans, participation interests, sub-investment grade and senior secured U.S. loans, and senior secured Euro denominated corporate leveraged loans and bonds. We underwrite securities issued in CLO transactions on behalf of sponsors and provide advisory services to the sponsors. We may also sell corporate loans to the CLOs. Our variable interests in connection with CLOs where we have been involved in providing underwriting and/or advisory services consist of the following: • Forward sale agreements whereby we commit to sell, at a fixed price, corporate loans and ownership interests in an entity holding such corporate loans to CLOs; • Warehouse funding arrangements in the form of: ◦ Participation interests in corporate loans held by CLOs and commitments to fund such participation interests, ◦ Reverse repurchase agreements with collateral margin maintenance obligations and commitments to fund such reverse repurchase agreements; and ◦ Senior and subordinated notes issued in connection with CLO warehousing activities. • Trading positions in securities issued in CLO transactions; and • Investments in variable funding notes issued by CLOs. Asset-Backed Vehicles. We provide financing and lending related services to certain client-sponsored VIEs in the form of revolving funding note agreements, revolving credit facilities, forward purchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements. The underlying assets, which are collateralizing the vehicles, are primarily composed of unsecured consumer loans, mortgage loans. In addition, we may provide structuring and advisory services and act as an underwriter or placement agent for securities issued by the vehicles. We do not control the activities of these entities. Related Party Private Equity Vehicles. We committed to invest in private equity funds, (the “JCP Funds”, including JCP Fund V (see Note 8, Investments)) managed by Jefferies Capital Partners, LLC (the “JCP Manager”). Additionally, we committed to invest in the general partners of the JCP Funds (the “JCP General Partners”) and the JCP Manager. Our variable interests in the JCP Funds, JCP General Partners and JCP Manager (collectively, the “JCP Entities”) consist of equity interests that, in total, provide us with limited and general partner investment returns of the JCP Funds, a portion of the carried interest earned by the JCP General Partners and a portion of the management fees earned by the JCP Manager. At both February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, our total equity commitment in the JCP Entities was $133.0 million, of which $122.3 million had been funded. The carrying value of our equity investments in the JCP Entities was $26.2 million and $27.1 million at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, respectively. Our exposure to loss is limited to the total of our carrying value and unfunded equity commitment. The assets of the JCP Entities primarily consist of private equity and equity related investments. Other Investment Vehicles. At February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, we had equity commitments to invest $1.07 billion and $760.0 million, respectively, in various other investment vehicles, of which $976.0 million and $759.1 million was funded, respectively. The carrying value of our equity investments was $1.24 billion and $907.6 million at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, respectively. Our exposure to loss is limited to the total of our carrying value and unfunded equity commitment. These investment vehicles have assets primarily consisting of private and public equity investments, debt instruments, trade and insurance claims and various oil and gas assets. Mortgage-Backed and Other Asset-Backed Secured Funding Vehicles. In connection with our secondary trading and market-making activities, we buy and sell agency and non-agency mortgage-backed securities and other asset-backed securities, which are issued by third-party securitization SPEs and are generally considered variable interests in VIEs. Securities issued by securitization SPEs are backed by residential mortgage loans, U.S. agency collateralized mortgage obligations, commercial mortgage loans, CDOs and CLOs and other consumer loans, such as installment receivables, automobile loans and student loans. These securities are accounted for at fair value and included in Financial instruments owned in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. We have no other involvement with the related SPEs and therefore do not consolidate these entities. We also engage in underwriting, placement and structuring activities for third-party-sponsored securitization trusts generally through agency (Fannie Mae, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) or Ginnie Mae) or non-agency-sponsored SPEs and may purchase loans or mortgage-backed securities from third-parties that are subsequently transferred into the securitization trusts. The securitizations are backed by residential and commercial mortgage, home equity and automobile loans. We do not consolidate agency-sponsored securitizations as we do not have the power to direct the activities of the SPEs that most significantly impact their economic performance. Further, we are not the servicer of non-agency-sponsored securitizations and therefore do not have power to direct the most significant activities of the SPEs and accordingly, do not consolidate these entities. We may retain unsold senior and/or subordinated interests at the time of securitization in the form of securities issued by the SPEs. At February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, we held $1.05 billion and $1.31 billion of agency mortgage-backed securities, respectively, and $207.0 million and $253.9 million of non-agency mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities, respectively, as a result of our secondary trading and market-making activities, and underwriting, placement and structuring activities. Our maximum exposure to loss on these securities is limited to the carrying value of our investments in these securities. These mortgage-backed and other asset-backed secured funding vehicles discussed are not included in the above table containing information about our variable interests in nonconsolidated VIEs. |

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract] | |
Investments | Investments At February 28, 2022, we had investments in JFIN Parent LLC (“Jefferies Finance”) and Berkadia. We hold an equity interest in JFIN Parent LLC and Jefferies Finance LLC is a direct subsidiary of JFIN Parent LLC. Our investments in Jefferies Finance and Berkadia have been accounted for under the equity method and have been included in Loans to and investments in related parties in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition with our share of the investees’ earnings recognized in Other revenues in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. We have limited partnership interests of 11% and 51% in Jefferies Capital Partners V L.P. and the Jefferies SBI USA Fund L.P. (together, “JCP Fund V”), respectively, which are private equity funds managed by a team led by one of our directors and our Chairman of the Executive Committee. In addition, at December 1, 2021, in connection with the transfer of certain securities and partnership interests from Jefferies to us, we have investments in Monashee Holdings LLC (“Monashee”); Oak Hill Capital Management LLC, OHCP GenPar Holdco, LP, Oak Hill Capital Management Partners III, LP and Oak Hill Capital Partners IV (Management), LP (collectively the “Oak Hill entities”) and ApiJect Systems, Corp. (“ApiJect”). Jefferies Finance Jefferies Finance, our 50/50 joint venture entity pursuant to an agreement with Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (“MassMutual”), is a commercial finance company that structures, underwrites and syndicates primarily senior secured loans to corporate borrowers; and manages proprietary and third-party investments for both broadly syndicated and direct lending loans. Jefferies Finance conducts its operations primarily through two business lines, Leveraged Finance Arrangement and Portfolio and Asset Management. Loans are originated primarily through our investment banking efforts and Jefferies Finance typically syndicates to third-party investors substantially all of its arranged volume through us. The Portfolio and Asset Management business lines, collectively referred to as Jefferies Credit Partners, manages a broad portfolio of assets under management comprised of portions of loans it has arranged, as well as loan positions that it has purchased in the primary and secondary markets. Jefferies Credit Partners is comprised of three registered Investment Advisors: Jefferies Finance, Apex Credit Partners LLC and JFIN Asset Management LLC, which serve as a private credit platform managing proprietary and third-party capital across commingled funds, separately managed accounts and CLOs. At February 28, 2022, we and MassMutual each had equity commitments to Jefferies Finance of $750.0 million, for a combined total commitment of $1.50 billion. The equity commitment is reduced quarterly based on our share of any undistributed earnings from Jefferies Finance and the commitment is increased only to the extent the share of such earnings are distributed.

Revenues from Contracts with Customers | Revenues from Contracts with Customers The following table presents our total revenues separated for our revenues from contracts with customers and our other sources of revenues (in thousands): Three Months Ended 2022 2021 Revenues from contracts with customers: Commissions and other fees $ 229,453 $ 236,938 Investment banking 945,048 1,003,662 Asset management fees 12,569 6,913 Total revenue from contracts with customers 1,187,070 1,247,513 Other sources of revenue: Principal transactions 260,026 791,219 Revenue from strategic affiliates 26,982 30,470 Interest 212,790 219,021 Other 65,791 60,588 Total revenues $ 1,752,659 $ 2,348,811 Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when, or as, we satisfy our performance obligations by transferring the promised goods or services to the customers. A good or service is transferred to a customer when, or as, the customer obtains control of that good or service. A performance obligation may be satisfied over time or at a point in time. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied over time is recognized by measuring our progress in satisfying the performance obligation in a manner that depicts the transfer of the goods or services to the customer. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied at a point in time is recognized at the point in time that we determine the customer obtains control over the promised good or service. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those promised goods or services ( i.e. , the “transaction price”). In determining the transaction price, we consider multiple factors, including the effects of variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainties with respect to the amount are resolved. In determining when to include variable consideration in the transaction price, we consider the range of possible outcomes, the predictive value of our past experiences, the time period of when uncertainties expect to be resolved and the amount of consideration that is susceptible to factors outside of our influence, such as market volatility or the judgment and actions of third-parties. The following provides detailed information on the recognition of our revenues from contracts with customers: Commissions and Other Fees. We earn commission and other fee revenue by executing, settling and clearing transactions for clients primarily in equity, equity-related and futures products. Trade execution and clearing services, when provided together, represent a single performance obligation as the services are not separately identifiable in the context of the contract. Commission revenues associated with combined trade execution and clearing services, as well as trade execution services on a standalone basis, are recognized at a point in time on trade-date. Commissions revenues are generally paid on settlement date and we record a receivable between trade-date and payment on settlement date. We permit institutional customers to allocate a portion of their gross commissions to pay for research products and other services provided by third-parties. The amounts allocated for those purposes are commonly referred to as soft dollar arrangements. We act as an agent in the soft dollar arrangements as the customer controls the use of the soft dollars and directs our payments to third-party service providers on its behalf. Accordingly, amounts allocated to soft dollar arrangements are netted against commission revenues in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. We also earn investment research fees for the sales of our proprietary investment research when a contract with a client has been identified. The delivery of investment research services represents a distinct performance obligation that is satisfied over time when the performance obligation is to provide ongoing access to a research platform or research analysts, with fees recognized on a straight-line basis over the period in which the performance obligation is satisfied. The performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time when the performance obligation is to provide individual interactions with research analysts or research events, with fees recognized on the interaction date. We earn account advisory and distribution fees in connection with wealth management services. Account advisory fees are recognized over time using the time-elapsed method as we determined that the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of investment advisory services as they are provided. Account advisory fees may be paid in advance of a specified service period or in arrears at the end of the specified service period ( e.g. , quarterly). Account advisory fees paid in advance are initially deferred within Accrued expenses and other liabilities in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Distribution fees are variable and recognized when the uncertainties with respect to the amounts are resolved. Investment Banking. We provide our clients with a full range of financial advisory and underwriting services. Revenues from financial advisory services primarily consist of fees generated in connection with merger, acquisition and restructuring transactions. Advisory fees from mergers and acquisitions engagements are recognized at a point in time when the related transaction is completed, as the performance obligation is to successfully broker a specific transaction. Fees received prior to the completion of the transaction are deferred within Accrued expenses and other liabilities in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Advisory fees from restructuring engagements are recognized over time using a time elapsed measure of progress as our clients simultaneously receive and consume the benefits of those services as they are provided. A significant portion of the fees we receive for our advisory services are considered variable as they are contingent upon a future event ( e.g. , completion of a transaction or third-party emergence from bankruptcy) and are excluded from the transaction price until the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved, which is expected to occur upon achievement of the specified milestone. Payment for advisory services are generally due promptly upon completion of a specified milestone or, for retainer fees, periodically over the course of the engagement. We recognize a receivable between the date of completion of the milestone and payment by the customer. Expenses associated with investment banking advisory engagements are deferred only to the extent they are explicitly reimbursable by the client and the related revenue is recognized at a point in time. All other investment banking advisory related expenses, including expenses incurred related to restructuring assignments, are expensed as incurred. All investment banking advisory expenses are recognized within their respective expense category in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings and any expenses reimbursed by our clients are recognized as Investment banking revenues. Underwriting services include underwriting and placement agent services in both the equity and debt capital markets, including private equity placements, initial public offerings, follow-on offerings and equity-linked securities transactions and structuring, underwriting and distributing public and private debt, including investment grade debt, high yield bonds, leveraged loans, municipal bonds and mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. Underwriting and placement agent revenues are recognized at a point in time on trade-date, as the client obtains the control and benefit of the underwriting offering at that point. Costs associated with underwriting transactions are deferred until the related revenue is recognized or the engagement is otherwise concluded, and are recorded on a gross basis within Underwriting costs in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings as we are acting as a principal in the arrangement. Any expenses reimbursed by our clients are recognized as Investment banking revenues. Asset Management Fees. We earn management and performance fees in connection with investment advisory services provided to various funds and accounts, which are satisfied over time and measured using a time elapsed measure of progress as the customer receives the benefits of the services evenly throughout the term of the contract. Management and performance fees are considered variable as they are subject to fluctuation ( e.g. , changes in assets under management, market performance) and/ or are contingent on a future event during the measurement period ( e.g. , meeting a specified benchmark) and are recognized only to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty is resolved. Management fees are generally based on month-end assets under management or an agreed upon notional amount and are included in the transaction price at the end of each month when the assets under management or notional amount is known. Performance fees are received when the return on assets under management for a specified performance period exceed certain benchmark returns, “high-water marks” or other performance targets. The performance period related to our performance fees is annual or semi-annual. Accordingly, performance fee revenue will generally be recognized only at the end of the performance period to the extent that the benchmark return has been met. Disaggregation of Revenue The following presents our revenues from contracts with customers disaggregated by major business activity and primary geographic regions (in thousands): Three Months Ended February 28, 2022 2021 Reportable Segment Reportable Segment Investment Asset Management Total Investment Asset Management Total Major business activity: Investment banking - Advisory $ 543,769 $ — $ 543,769 $ 311,439 $ — $ 311,439 Investment banking - Underwriting 401,279 — 401,279 692,223 — 692,223 Equities (1) 226,068 — 226,068 233,539 — 233,539 Fixed income (1) 3,385 — 3,385 3,399 — 3,399 Asset management — 12,569 12,569 — 6,913 6,913 Total $ 1,174,501 $ 12,569 $ 1,187,070 $ 1,240,600 $ 6,913 $ 1,247,513 Primary geographic region: Americas $ 937,070 $ 12,569 $ 949,639 $ 1,026,916 $ 6,584 $ 1,033,500 Europe 166,172 — 166,172 163,737 329 164,066 Asia Pacific 71,259 — 71,259 49,947 — 49,947 Total $ 1,174,501 $ 12,569 $ 1,187,070 $ 1,240,600 $ 6,913 $ 1,247,513 (1) Revenues from contracts with customers associated with the equities and fixed income businesses primarily represent commissions and other fee revenue. Refer to Note 17, Segment Reporting, for a further discussion on the allocation of revenues to geographic regions. Information on Remaining Performance Obligations and Revenue Recognized from Past Performance We do not disclose information about remaining performance obligations pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less. The transaction price allocated to remaining unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied performance obligations with an original expected duration exceeding one year was not material at February 28, 2022. Investment banking advisory fees that are contingent upon completion of a specific milestone and fees associated with certain distribution services are also excluded as the fees are considered variable and not included in the transaction price at February 28, 2022. During the three months ended February 28, 2022 and 2021, we recognized $35.0 million and $33.6 million, respectively, of revenue related to performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods, mainly due to resolving uncertainties in variable consideration that was constrained in prior periods. In addition, during the three months ended February 28, 2022 and 2021, we recognized $3.5 million, and $2.9 million, respectively, of revenues primarily associated with distribution services, a portion of which relates to prior periods. Contract Balances The timing of our revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by our customers. We record a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to payment and we have an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, we record deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied. Our deferred revenue primarily relates to retainer and milestone fees received in investment banking advisory engagements where the performance obligation has not yet been satisfied. Deferred revenues at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021 were $4.0 million and $14.9 million, respectively, which are recorded in Accrued expenses and other liabilities in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. During the three months ended February 28, 2022 and 2021, we recognized revenues of $11.4 million and $3.4 million, respectively, that were recorded as deferred revenue at the beginning of the periods. We had receivables related to revenues from contracts with customers of $203.8 million and $232.6 million at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, respectively. We estimate an allowance for credit losses on our investment banking fee receivables using a provisioning matrix based on the shared risk characteristics and historical loss experience for such receivables. In some instances, we may adjust the allowance calculated based on the provision matrix to incorporate a specific allowance based on the unique credit risk profile of a receivable. The provisioning matrix is periodically updated to reflect changes in the underlying portfolio's credit characteristics and most recent historical loss data. The allowance for credit losses on our investment banking fee receivables for the three months ended February 28, 2022 and 2021 is as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended 2022 2021 Beginning balance $ 4,824 $ 19,788 Adjustment for change in accounting principle for current expected credit losses — (3,594) Bad debt expense, net of reversals 340 626 Charge-offs (50) (425) Recoveries collected (605) (2,384) Ending balance (1) $ 4,509 $ 14,011 (1) The allowance for doubtful accounts balances are substantially all related to mergers and acquisitions and restructuring fee receivables, which include recoverable expense receivables. Contract Costs We capitalize costs to fulfill contracts associated with investment banking advisory engagements where the revenue is recognized at a point in time and the costs are determined to be recoverable. Capitalized costs to fulfill a contract are recognized at the point in time that the related revenue is recognized. At February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, capitalized costs to fulfill a contract were $1.1 million and $1.6 million, respectively, which are recorded in Receivables—Fees, interest and other in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. For the three months ended February 28, 2022 and 2021, we recognized expenses of $1.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively, related to costs to fulfill a contract that were capitalized as of the beginning of the period. There were no significant impairment charges recognized in relation to these capitalized costs during the three months ended February 28, 2022 and 2021. |

Compensation Plans | Compensation Plans Jefferies sponsors our following share-based compensation plans: Equity Compensation Plan, Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the Deferred Compensation Plan. The outstanding and future share-based awards relating to these plans relate to Jefferies common shares. The fair value of share-based awards is estimated on the date of grant based on the market price of the underlying common stock less the impact of market conditions and selling restrictions subsequent to vesting, if any, and is amortized as compensation expense over the related requisite service periods. We are allocated costs associated with awards granted to our employees under such plans. In addition, we sponsor non-share-based compensation plans. Non-share-based compensation plans sponsored by us include a profit sharing plan and other forms of restricted cash awards. The components of total compensation cost associated with certain of our compensation plans are as follows (in millions): Three Months Ended 2022 2021 Components of compensation cost: Restricted cash awards $ 32.1 $ 49.1 Stock options and Stock appreciation rights — 39.4 Restricted stock and RSUs (1) 7.1 4.2 Profit sharing plan 5.3 4.0 Total compensation cost $ 44.5 $ 96.7 (1) Total compensation cost associated with restricted stock and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) includes the amortization of sign-on, retention and senior executive awards, less forfeitures and clawbacks. Remaining unamortized amounts related to certain compensation plans at February 28, 2022 are as follows (dollars in millions): Remaining Unamortized Amounts Weighted Average Non-vested share-based awards $ 96.9 4 Restricted cash awards (1) 298.1 3 Total $ 395.0 (1) The remaining unamortized amount is included within Other assets in our Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes In the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we changed our accounting policy election as it relates to where we record interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits in order to align our accounting policy and income statement presentation with that of Jefferies. Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we record interest on unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the provision for income taxes and reported financial information for historical comparable periods has not been revised. Prior to the first quarter of fiscal 2022, interest on unrecognized tax benefits was recorded in Interest expense in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. In addition, penalties, if any, are recognized in the provision for income taxes. This change did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and has no impact on Net earnings in our historical periods. At February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, our total gross unrecognized tax benefits were $287.1 million and $198.9 million, respectively. The increase is primarily attributable to the inclusion of $77.5 million of accrued interest at February 28, 2022 related to the change in accounting policy discussed above. At February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, we had interest accrued of approximately $77.5 million and $74.3 million, respectively, included in Accrued expenses and other liabilities in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The total amount of unrecognized benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective tax rate was $227.2 million and $157.8 million (net of Federal benefit) at February 28, 2022 and November 30, 2021, respectively. We are currently under examination by a number of taxing jurisdictions. Though we do not expect that resolution of these examinations will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, they may have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations for the period in which resolution occurs. The table below summarizes the earliest tax years that remain subject to examination in the major tax jurisdictions in which we operate: Jurisdiction Tax Year United States 2018 New York State 2001 New York City 2006 United Kingdom 2020 Hong Kong 2015 Germany 2017 |

Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees | Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees Commitments The following table summarizes our commitments at February 28, 2022 (in millions): Expected Maturity Date (fiscal years) 2022 2023 2024 2026 2028 Maximum Payout Equity commitments (1) $ 84.9 $ 27.2 $ 2.7 $ 4.1 $ 35.2 $ 154.1 Loan commitments (1) — 275.3 — 60.0 — 335.3 Underwriting commitments 116.9 — — — — 116.9 Forward starting reverse repos (2) 9,616.7 — — — — 9,616.7 Forward starting repos (2) 6,215.0 — — — — 6,215.0 Other unfunded commitments (1) 25.0 477.0 5.4 — — 507.4 Total commitments $ 16,058.5 $ 779.5 $ 8.1 $ 64.1 $ 35.2 $ 16,945.4 (1) Equity, loan and other unfunded commitments are presented by contractual maturity date. The amounts, however, are available on demand. (2) At February 28, 2022, $9.58 billion within forward starting securities purchased under agreements to resell and all of the forward starting securities sold under agreements to repurchase settled within three Equity Commitments. Includes a commitment to invest in our joint venture, Jefferies Finance, and commitments to invest in private equity funds and in Jefferies Capital Partners, LLC, the manager of the private equity funds, which consists of a team led by one of our directors and Chairman of the Executive Committee. At February 28, 2022, our outstanding commitments relating to Jefferies Capital Partners, LLC and its private equity funds were $10.7 million. See Note 8, Investments, for additional information regarding our investments in Jefferies Finance. Additionally, at February 28, 2022, we had outstanding equity commitments to invest up to $71.8 million in the Oak Hill entities and $56.2 million in various other investments. Loan Commitments. From time to time we make commitments to extend credit to investment banking and other clients in loan syndication and acquisition finance, and to strategic affiliates. These commitments and any related drawdowns of these facilities typically have fixed maturity dates and are contingent on certain representations, warranties and contractual conditions applicable to the borrower. At February 28, 2022, we had $85.3 million of outstanding loan commitments to clients. Loan commitments outstanding at February 28, 2022 also include our portion of the outstanding secured revolving credit facility provided to Jefferies Finance, to support loan underwritings by Jefferies Finance. See Note 8, Investments, for additional information. Underwriting Commitments. In connection with investment banking activities, we may from time to time provide underwriting commitments to our clients in connection with capital raising transactions. Forward Starting Reverse Repos and Repos. We enter into commitments to take possession of securities with agreements to resell on a forward starting basis and to sell securities with agreements to repurchase on a forward starting basis that are primarily secured by U.S. government and agency securities. Other Unfunded Commitments. Other unfunded commitments include obligations in the form of revolving notes, warehouse financings and debt securities to provide financing to asset-backed and CLO vehicles. Upon advancing funds, drawn amounts are collateralized by the assets of an entity. Guarantees Derivative Contracts. As a dealer, we make markets and trade in a variety of derivative instruments. Certain derivative contracts that we have entered into meet the accounting definition of a guarantee under U.S. GAAP, including credit default swaps, written foreign currency options and written equity put options. On certain of these contracts, such as written interest rate caps and foreign currency options, the maximum payout cannot be quantified since the increase in interest or foreign exchange rates are not contractually limited by the terms of the contract. As such, we have disclosed notional values as a measure of our maximum potential payout under these contracts. The following table summarizes the notional amounts associated with our derivative contracts meeting the definition of a guarantee under U.S. GAAP at February 28, 2022 (in millions): Expected Maturity Date (Fiscal Years) 2022 2023 2024 2026 2028 Notional/ Maximum Payout Guarantee Type: Derivative contracts—non-credit related $ 13,370.4 $ 8,083.3 $ 6,874.9 $ 1,621.7 $ — $ 29,950.3 Written derivative contracts—credit related — — 0.2 — — 0.2 Total derivative contracts $ 13,370.4 $ 8,083.3 $ 6,875.1 $ 1,621.7 $ — $ 29,950.5 The derivative contracts deemed to meet the definition of a guarantee under U.S. GAAP are before consideration of hedging transactions and only reflect a partial or “one-sided” component of any risk exposure. Written equity options and written credit default swaps are often executed in a strategy that is in tandem with long cash instruments ( e.g. , equity and debt securities). We substantially mitigate our exposure to market risk on these contracts through hedges, such as other derivative contracts and/or cash instruments, and we manage the risk associated with these contracts in the context of our overall risk management framework. We believe notional amounts overstate our expected payout and that fair value of these contracts is a more relevant measure of our obligations. At February 28, 2022, the fair value of derivative contracts meeting the definition of a guarantee is approximately $398.1 million. Standby Letters of Credit. At February 28, 2022, we provided guarantees to certain counterparties in the form of standby letters of credit in the amount of $6.1 million, with a weighted average maturity of approximately one year. Standby letters of credit commit us to make payment to the beneficiary if the guaranteed party fails to fulfill its obligation under a contractual arrangement with that beneficiary. Since commitments associated with these collateral instruments may expire unused, the amount shown does not necessarily reflect the actual future cash funding requirement. Other Guarantees. We are members of various exchanges and clearing houses. In the normal course of business, we provide guarantees to securities clearing houses and exchanges. These guarantees generally are required under the standard membership agreements, such that members are required to guarantee the performance of other members. Additionally, if a member becomes unable to satisfy its obligations to the clearing house, other members would be required to meet these shortfalls. To mitigate these performance risks, the exchanges and clearing houses often require members to post collateral. Our obligations under such guarantees could exceed the collateral amounts posted. Our maximum potential liability under these arrangements cannot be quantified; however, the potential for us to be required to make payments under such guarantees is deemed remote. Accordingly, no liability has been recognized for these arrangements. Additionally, we provide certain indemnifications in connection with third-party clearing and execution arrangements whereby a third-party may clear and settle transactions on behalf of our clients. These indemnifications generally have standard contractual terms and are entered into in the ordinary course of business. Our obligations in respect of such transactions are secured by the assets in our client’s account, as well as any proceeds received from the transactions cleared and settled on behalf of our client. However, we believe that it is unlikely we would have to make any material payments under these arrangements and no material liabilities related to these indemnifications have been recognized. |

Brokers and Dealers [Abstract] | |
Net Capital Requirements | Net Capital Requirements As a broker-dealer registered with the SEC and a member firm of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), Jefferies LLC is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule (“Rule 15c3-1”), which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital, and has elected to calculate minimum capital requirements using the alternative method permitted by Rule 15c3-1 in calculating net capital. Jefferies LLC, as a dually-registered U.S. broker-dealer and futures commission merchant (“FCM”), is also subject to Rule 1.17 of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”), which sets forth minimum financial requirements. The minimum net capital requirement in determining excess net capital for a dually-registered U.S. broker-dealer and FCM is equal to the greater of the requirement under Rule 15c3-1 or CFTC Rule 1.17. FINRA is the designated examining authority for Jefferies LLC and the National Futures Association (“NFA”) is the designated self-regulatory organization for Jefferies LLC as an FCM. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) contains provisions that require the registration of all swap dealers, major swap participants, security-based swap dealers, and/or major security-based swap participants. Jefferies Financial Services, Inc. (“JFSI”), a registered swap dealer, is subject to the CFTC’s regulatory capital requirements and holds regulatory capital in excess of the minimum regulatory requirement. Additionally, JFSI is registered as a security-based swap dealer with the SEC and is subject to the SEC’s security-based swap dealer regulatory rules. Further, JFSI is approved by the SEC as an OTC derivatives dealer, and is subject to compliance with the SEC’s net capital requirements. As a security-based swap dealer and swap dealer, JFSI is subject to the net capital requirements of the SEC, CFTC and the NFA, as a member of the NFA. JFSI is required to maintain minimum net capital, as defined under SEC Rule 18a-1 of not less than the greater of 2% of the risk margin amount, as defined, or $20 million. At February 28, 2022, Jefferies LLC and JFSI’s net capital and excess net capital were as follows (in thousands): Net Capital Excess Net Capital Jefferies LLC $ 1,788,293 $ 1,679,136 JFSI 427,645 407,645 Certain other U.S. and non-U.S. subsidiaries are subject to capital adequacy requirements as prescribed by the regulatory authorities in their respective jurisdictions, including Jefferies International Limited which is subject to the regulatory supervision and requirements of the Financial Conduct Authority in the U.K. The regulatory capital requirements referred to above may restrict our ability to withdraw capital from our regulated subsidiaries. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Reporting | Segment Reporting We operate in two reportable business segments: (1) Investment Banking and Capital Markets and (2) Asset Management. The Investment Banking and Capital Markets reportable business segment includes our securities, commodities, futures and foreign exchange capital markets activities and investment banking business, which is composed of financial advisory and underwriting activities. The Investment Banking and Capital Markets reportable business segment provides the sales, trading, origination and advisory effort for various fixed income, equity and advisory products and services. The Asset Management reportable business segment provides investment management services to investors in the U.S. and overseas and invests capital in hedge funds, separately managed accounts and third-party asset managers. On December 1, 2021, we have expanded the activities of our Asset Management reportable business segment to include alternative investment strategies. Previously reported results are presented on a comparable basis. Our reportable business segment information is prepared using the following methodologies: • Net revenues and non-interest expenses directly associated with each reportable business segment are included in determining earnings (loss) before income taxes. • Net revenues and non-interest expenses not directly associated with specific reportable business segments are allocated based on the most relevant measures applicable, including each reportable business segment’s net revenues, headcount and other factors. • Reportable business segment assets include an allocation of indirect corporate assets that have been fully allocated to our reportable business segments, generally based on each reportable business segment’s capital utilization. Our net revenues, non-interest expenses and earnings before income taxes by reportable business segment are summarized below (in millions): Three Months Ended 2022 2021 Investment Banking and Capital Markets: Net revenues $ 1,481.8 $ 1,958.8 Non-interest expenses 1,060.9 1,416.2 Earnings before income taxes $ 420.9 $ 542.6 Asset Management: Net revenues $ 60.0 $ 170.6 Non-interest expenses 44.0 42.0 Earnings before income taxes $ 16.0 $ 128.6 Total: Net revenues $ 1,541.8 $ 2,129.4 Non-interest expenses 1,104.9 1,458.2 Earnings before income taxes $ 436.9 $ 671.2 The following table summarizes our total assets by reportable business segment (in millions): February 28, 2022 November 30, 2021 Investment Banking and Capital Markets $ 52,729.5 $ 51,697.4 Asset Management 3,169.9 3,071.5 Total assets $ 55,899.4 $ 54,768.9 Net Revenues by Geographic Region Net revenues for the Investment Banking and Capital Markets reportable business segment are recorded in the geographic region in which the position was risk-managed or, in the case of investment banking, in which the senior coverage banker is located.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2021. Certain footnote disclosures included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2021 have been condensed or omitted from the consolidated financial statements as they are not required for interim reporting under U.S. GAAP. The Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim period. The results presented in our Consolidated Financial Statements for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. |
Consolidation | Consolidation Our policy is to consolidate all entities that we control by ownership of a majority of the outstanding voting stock. In addition, we consolidate entities that meet the definition of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which we are the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the party who has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and who has an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. For consolidated entities that are less than wholly-owned, the third-party’s holding of equity interest is presented as Noncontrolling interests in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition and Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity. The portion of net earnings attributable to the noncontrolling interests is presented as Net earnings (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. In situations in which we have significant influence, but not control, of an entity that does not qualify as a VIE, we apply either the equity method of accounting or fair value accounting pursuant to the fair value option election under U.S. GAAP, with our portion of net earnings or gains and losses recorded in Other revenues or Principal transactions revenues, respectively. We also have formed nonconsolidated investment vehicles with third-party investors that are typically organized as partnerships or limited liability companies and are carried at fair value. We act as general partner or managing member for these investment vehicles and have generally provided the third-party investors with termination or “kick-out” rights. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. |
Revenues from Contracts with Customers | Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when, or as, we satisfy our performance obligations by transferring the promised goods or services to the customers. A good or service is transferred to a customer when, or as, the customer obtains control of that good or service. A performance obligation may be satisfied over time or at a point in time. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied over time is recognized by measuring our progress in satisfying the performance obligation in a manner that depicts the transfer of the goods or services to the customer. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied at a point in time is recognized at the point in time that we determine the customer obtains control over the promised good or service. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those promised goods or services ( i.e. , the “transaction price”). In determining the transaction price, we consider multiple factors, including the effects of variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price only to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainties with respect to the amount are resolved. In determining when to include variable consideration in the transaction price, we consider the range of possible outcomes, the predictive value of our past experiences, the time period of when uncertainties expect to be resolved and the amount of consideration that is susceptible to factors outside of our influence, such as market volatility or the judgment and actions of third-parties. The following provides detailed information on the recognition of our revenues from contracts with customers: Commissions and Other Fees. We earn commission and other fee revenue by executing, settling and clearing transactions for clients primarily in equity, equity-related and futures products. Trade execution and clearing services, when provided together, represent a single performance obligation as the services are not separately identifiable in the context of the contract. Commission revenues associated with combined trade execution and clearing services, as well as trade execution services on a standalone basis, are recognized at a point in time on trade-date. Commissions revenues are generally paid on settlement date and we record a receivable between trade-date and payment on settlement date. We permit institutional customers to allocate a portion of their gross commissions to pay for research products and other services provided by third-parties. The amounts allocated for those purposes are commonly referred to as soft dollar arrangements. We act as an agent in the soft dollar arrangements as the customer controls the use of the soft dollars and directs our payments to third-party service providers on its behalf. Accordingly, amounts allocated to soft dollar arrangements are netted against commission revenues in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings. We also earn investment research fees for the sales of our proprietary investment research when a contract with a client has been identified. The delivery of investment research services represents a distinct performance obligation that is satisfied over time when the performance obligation is to provide ongoing access to a research platform or research analysts, with fees recognized on a straight-line basis over the period in which the performance obligation is satisfied. The performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time when the performance obligation is to provide individual interactions with research analysts or research events, with fees recognized on the interaction date. We earn account advisory and distribution fees in connection with wealth management services. Account advisory fees are recognized over time using the time-elapsed method as we determined that the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of investment advisory services as they are provided. Account advisory fees may be paid in advance of a specified service period or in arrears at the end of the specified service period ( e.g. , quarterly). Account advisory fees paid in advance are initially deferred within Accrued expenses and other liabilities in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Distribution fees are variable and recognized when the uncertainties with respect to the amounts are resolved. Investment Banking. We provide our clients with a full range of financial advisory and underwriting services. Revenues from financial advisory services primarily consist of fees generated in connection with merger, acquisition and restructuring transactions. Advisory fees from mergers and acquisitions engagements are recognized at a point in time when the related transaction is completed, as the performance obligation is to successfully broker a specific transaction. Fees received prior to the completion of the transaction are deferred within Accrued expenses and other liabilities in our Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Advisory fees from restructuring engagements are recognized over time using a time elapsed measure of progress as our clients simultaneously receive and consume the benefits of those services as they are provided. A significant portion of the fees we receive for our advisory services are considered variable as they are contingent upon a future event ( e.g. , completion of a transaction or third-party emergence from bankruptcy) and are excluded from the transaction price until the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved, which is expected to occur upon achievement of the specified milestone. Payment for advisory services are generally due promptly upon completion of a specified milestone or, for retainer fees, periodically over the course of the engagement. We recognize a receivable between the date of completion of the milestone and payment by the customer. Expenses associated with investment banking advisory engagements are deferred only to the extent they are explicitly reimbursable by the client and the related revenue is recognized at a point in time. All other investment banking advisory related expenses, including expenses incurred related to restructuring assignments, are expensed as incurred. All investment banking advisory expenses are recognized within their respective expense category in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings and any expenses reimbursed by our clients are recognized as Investment banking revenues. Underwriting services include underwriting and placement agent services in both the equity and debt capital markets, including private equity placements, initial public offerings, follow-on offerings and equity-linked securities transactions and structuring, underwriting and distributing public and private debt, including investment grade debt, high yield bonds, leveraged loans, municipal bonds and mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. Underwriting and placement agent revenues are recognized at a point in time on trade-date, as the client obtains the control and benefit of the underwriting offering at that point. Costs associated with underwriting transactions are deferred until the related revenue is recognized or the engagement is otherwise concluded, and are recorded on a gross basis within Underwriting costs in our Consolidated Statements of Earnings as we are acting as a principal in the arrangement. Any expenses reimbursed by our clients are recognized as Investment banking revenues. Asset Management Fees. We earn management and performance fees in connection with investment advisory services provided to various funds and accounts, which are satisfied over time and measured using a time elapsed measure of progress as the customer receives the benefits of the services evenly throughout the term of the contract. Management and performance fees are considered variable as they are subject to fluctuation ( e.g. , changes in assets under management, market performance) and/ or are contingent on a future event during the measurement period ( e.g. , meeting a specified benchmark) and are recognized only to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty is resolved. Management fees are generally based on month-end assets under management or an agreed upon notional amount and are included in the transaction price at the end of each month when the assets under management or notional amount is known. Performance fees are received when the return on assets under management for a specified performance period exceed certain benchmark returns, “high-water marks” or other performance targets. The performance period related to our performance fees is annual or semi-annual. Accordingly, performance fee revenue will generally be recognized only at the end of the performance period to the extent that the benchmark return has been met. |

Quantitative Information about Significant Unobservable Inputs Used in Level 3 Fair Value Measurements | The tables below present information on the valuation techniques, significant unobservable inputs and their ranges for our financial assets and liabilities, subject to threshold levels related to the market value of the positions held, measured at fair value on a recurring basis with a significant Level 3 balance. The range of unobservable inputs could differ significantly across different firms given the range of products across different firms in the financial services sector. The inputs are not representative of the inputs that could have been used in the valuation of any one financial instrument ( i.e., the input used for valuing one financial instrument within a particular class of financial instruments may not be appropriate for valuing other financial instruments within that given class). Additionally, the ranges of inputs presented below should not be construed to represent uncertainty regarding the fair values of our financial instruments; rather, the range of inputs is reflective of the differences in the underlying characteristics of the financial instruments in each category. For certain categories, we have provided a weighted average of the inputs allocated based on the fair values of the financial instruments comprising the category. We do not believe that the range or weighted average of the inputs is indicative of the reasonableness of uncertainty of our Level 3 fair values. The range and weighted average are driven by the individual financial instruments within each category and their relative distribution in the population. The disclosed inputs when compared with the inputs as disclosed in other periods should not be expected to necessarily be indicative of changes in our estimates of unobservable inputs for a particular financial instrument as the population of financial instruments comprising the category will vary from period to period based on purchases and sales of financial instruments during the period as well as transfers into and out of Level 3 each period.
